Occupy Los Angeles: To Hell With Solidarity, But Wait... Free Food Stamps!!

[pumpsumiron]

These people don't want to live in a free society...anarchy leads to chaos. They puke on freedom,so FAH-Q dumbass freeloading bums.

[WTFukinshit]

This is why democratic socialism always becomes totalitarian socialism.  The answer? I don't know but it ain't socialism.

[TheGraphVideos]

and the marxist vagrants have done $500,000 worth of damage to city hall property.

[brooksbayne]

@MrMono no, you're there because the mayor is a marxist who is sympathetic to your marxist vagrancy ploy. look it up. he's a member of mecha, a latino marxist group. true story.

again, vagrancy ≠ assembly. this is a constitutional fact.

[MrMono]

And lastly: you have to take into consideration that some people from skid row have come down to OccupyLA. As we all know, a lot of them suffer from various mental illnesses. So you get a few sour apples here and there, but we are in day 36 and still going strong and there's not sign of slowing down. So we are pretty united overall. if you want to concentrate on just the negativity then that is all you will get. simple as that. completely ignore any positiveness that has come from it.

[brooksbayne]

@MrMono i saw nothing positive there. just a bunch of weirdos squatting on public property. i was there for almost 3 hours. i saw ppl conspiring to commit fraud to get "emergency food stamps". i saw ppl breaking drug laws openly. i saw ppl fighting about whether or not they were going to comply with fire dept mandates. basically, the dregs of marxist vagrancy all in one place. it was pathetic.

[MrMono]

@TheGraphVideos You should have you 15 year old read the US constitution. The right to petition the government for a redress of grievances. Freedom assembly. The Constitution is the main law of the land. you dont need a permit, the US Constitution IS the permit. Also do you honestly believe a democracy is suppose to be fun and flowers? where everyone gets along? No, it isn't. It never was and it never will be. People have opinions and different wants/needs. They will collide. Completely normal.

[brooksbayne]

@MrMono he has read the constitution and can recite all the titles of the articles and amendments.

vagrancy has nothing to do with redress of grievances.

remember this constitutionally sound bit of reality -> vagrancy ≠ assembly.

marxists can go somewhere else if they don't like it.

[prace11]

.Funny people. Even stupid misguided people have a right to assemble. Economically clueless groups of people now want what others have because they're too lazy and unmotivated to follow the American dream on their own. Much easier to take from others than to work for it yourself. If Socialism is so fair and wonderful then by all means move to a socialist country, you won't be missed

[Woodchuckk]

The girl in green at the 9:09 mark, if you are homeless you can come live with me :P

[Woodchuckk]

It Seems the only guy that understands freedom is the guy in the bandanna.

A lot of so called "small government" republicans could learn a lot from him.

Also, LOL at the guy with the flute

[brooksbayne]

@Woodchuckk as he's squatting on public property at a city hall that's paying for the power, porta-potties, etc. and while they're illegally signing up for $150 in "emergency" food stamps. yeah, perfect picture of small government views. not!

[Woodchuckk]

@brooksbayne

I was talking about him saying they don't need a central bureaucracy telling everyone how to run their tents, you know people doing things voluntarily, as opposed to by force.

[brooksbayne]

@Woodchuckk yeah, him and his kind were the ones that were getting the occupy squatters ejected from the city hall lawn by the fire department for violating the city's public safety mandates. a real winner, on either side of the coin. #not.

[Woodchuckk]

@brooksbayne

Your missing the point. Are the people in this video leeches on the tax payer, are they leaving trash, destroying the park, and creating fire hazards? Yes.

But the gentleman in the bandanna seems to understand that freedom means people do stupid shit and if you damage or pollute your neighbors property you have to deal with the consequences and no amount of bureaucracy will stop people from doing stupid shit.

You cannot legislate good behavior or morals.

[brooksbayne]

@Woodchuckk no, i'm well aware that you can only legislate behavior to a point where said behavior doesn't encroach on someone else's liberty. what you're missing is that he was completely oblivious to that fact that they had to move due to public safety - an encroachment on someone else's liberty.

so, in that sense, i still completely disagree with you.

[MrMono]

@brooksbayne what are you going on about? WE PAY FOR THE PORTA POTTIES! WE ALSO PAY FOR THE POWER! Well, use to, now we have solar power panels. You're completely out of the loop. You assume so much with so little.

[brooksbayne]

@MrMono no, the city pays for it. ask them. i did.

[MrMono]

@brooksbayne I been here since DAY 1, dude. From the start, our finance/pr lady got porta potties from the company she works in. I am in the media team as well. You don't have your facts straight at all.

[brooksbayne]

@MrMono you can "dude" me all you want, the city said they're paying for it. btw, who is paying for the $500,000 worth of damage the city said you've done to the city hall lawn? is your "finance lady" going to pay for that?

no, you're just causing damage, defrauding the govt to get food stamps (which ppl like me pay for), and being vagrants. and the funny part is, you think you're doing something constructive. if squatting is constructive, i guess you have that covered. #fail

[mah29732]

Redistribute more space for more tents or else is the message.

[Databyter]

These are the people that the libs want to run their health care.

[blakmira]

This ain't the Summer of Love. They're not united against any concrete thing (like the Vietnam War). 40 years later they're chemically dumbed down by chemicals, fast food, zombie drugs & alcohol.

Most of these are probably Obama supporters & think the answer is to be turned into a complete welfare state, paid for by the Middle Class. Like the lazy one at the end demanding food stamps.

Read up on Ron Paul & support him before the Middle Class is completely killed off by the govt.

[FckUDik]

These people are proof you can't fix stupid

[yakyakyak69]

It's funny to watch these commies learn about Private Property vs Central Planning tyranny even in their small group.

[yakyakyak69]

Progressivism (anti-liberty "liberalism") advocates changes or reform through GOV'T action aka BIG GOV'T!

Give any POLITICIAN the money & power to "redistribute & regulate" & they will ALWAYS benefit THEIR “special interest” campaign backers; Wall Street, Military-Industrial Complex, Marxist Union Bosses & Giant "Green" Corps, Big Oil etc.

Progressivism aka “Big Gov’t” CREATES Political Cronyism.

FIAT (counterfeit) debt-currency from the Fed just FUELS THE FIRE!

END THE FED!

[DearCitizenTv]

Great vid Brooks. 

[seanpercival1]

Lol at flute guy

[illuminayted]

The Illuminated ones have won, you are not at war with them... you are at war with each other. Systemic corruption has been found in the analysis, this planet has been deemed for re-origination. Said set date: 2012.

[2purple79]

No surprise Anarchy does not work. That is why the Marxist end up ruling the Anarchist.

[MrMono]

@2purple79 it is actually called democracy. did you not hear about coming to a consensus? ;p

[2purple79]

@MrMono

Democracy is mob rule. The U.S. is a republic.

[2purple79]

@MrMono

Democracy is mob rule aka "Occupy Oakland" the U.S. is a Republic.

[TrenchReport1]

That looks like an excellent 'civics' lesson. The "Son, don't let this happen to you." kind of lesson.

[brooksbayne]

@TrenchReport1 i like to let my son see for himself. he wasn't impressed with the marxists and anarchists. at all.

[HangProgressives]

those tents look real flammable....just saying

[brooksbayne]

@HangProgressives uncalled for

[MrMono]

@HangProgressives your clothes look flammable, are you suggesting we walk around naked too? Get real.

[HangProgressives]

time for a debtors prison again...cant pay of your student loan to prison you shall go..1 year per 5k owed

[mm102908]

Wouldn't a simple solution to handle these protestors be to just ship them to Venezuela and Cuba to experience what life is like in their ideal society and see how long they all last before they start begging to come back?

[brooksbayne]

@mm102908 good plan

[tony10376]

I love the "property" arguments by squatters over public property... "OK, I guess that means you failed..." Too bad they can't abide by that same philosophy and just pay their student loans for their bullshit degrees that they now can't pay for...LOL!

The president of the Southwest something or other at the end is hysterical...reminded me of a Dave Chappelle skit with him in drag...

[brooksbayne]

@tony10376 that's hilarious re: chappelle.
